Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
UW announces a brand new deal with DeBoer this week, immediately following the Apple Cup at the latest.
If not, no bueno.
No specific intel. Just my gut.
Either way...

Just my gut. Don't twist.
Grubb is holding out for a lease on a place with a big enough back yard that he can install an archery range so he can shoot his compound bow while wearing his cammo UW hat.
Worry about winning out.
DeBoer already knows he will get paid regardless of how the season ends.
The longer he holds out, the greater his payday can become if he wins a Natty or big bowl game.
If I was in his shoes I wouldn't waste a thought on a contract until the season is over.
Plenty of pros love the home city that drafted them only to sign elsewhere for life changing $. Validation enters into the equation, too.
Still plenty of question marks at Washington. The big elephant in the room: Big time Alumni support with NIL$. Picking diamonds from the portal is great. A roster full of ELITE talent the staff can develop is another.
Cauce's actions have been a pleasant surprise. The new AD already is a massive upgrade.
This is DeBoers year to cash-in. Hopefully our offer sways him to stay.
He already has the pixy dust at his back. A beat down in the playoffs or gulp, a choke in the Pac12 title game followed by a lessor bowl and facing a rebuild next year is a massive risk for a guy looking at a guaranteed double right now.
If it's Washington, why not now?
I'm hearing we're not fucking around. Winning it all isn't going to change our offer. We have what we have, and we are putting all our cards on the table, coming with our best bolt, as we should.
If Deboer wants to stay here, he should accept soon for the recruiting and eliminating the inevitable distractions that could affect the players
He still may sign but I bet he is waiting to see what Harbaugh does.
